Thought I bought Enduro, but got a mystery game. Pls help!
Speedbump replied to Speedbump's topic in Atari 2600
Well, here it is. Sure looks like Enduro, doesn't it? And that guy said he tested it and everything. hmph. Anyway, headed off to watch the tube and decompress from work. The Pitfall II trade idea is still on the table, BTW. ;> -

I don't really know what the difference is besides color -- is the blue label more rare?? Anyway, how I know what to call it: The auction said that it was a "blue label" Enduro and it sure looks blue to me. Also, when I started looking for what I actually had here on this site, I actually learned a couple of things. That's the point, right? ;> Honestly, I don't really care what the label is; I just wanted to play Enduro again. I also wanted the instructions, and that was the only one that had them too at the time I was buying, so that was the auction I went with. Unfortunately for me, I can't read French. BTW, I can't help but notice that you guys sure are paranoid about stuff. Do you get a lot of trolls around here or something? I truly am a newbie. Green as a gourd, but happy to be here and truly enjoying my Atari 2600 all over again. My cat thinks I'm crazy, fiddling with the little black box with a stick, making the TV make funny noises and groaning and cursing when I screw up. And, I now remember why my joystick wouldn't go to the right anymore after playing tons of Pitfall. It's like NASCAR, only in the other direction! ;> Speedy, looking forward to going home soon and uploading that cartridge picture -

No, I don't play Atari at work. I posted both of those when I was at home. I got to work about an hour ago. I work in the evenings. -

Hi guys, Thanks for the replies. I'm at work right now (don't tell my boss I'm here! LOL) so I can't do a pic right now, but when I get home tonight at about 1:30 a.m. EST, I'll take a picture of the cartridge for you. Also, thanks for the trade offer, but I already have another copy of Enduro already. ;> (It was one of my faves as a kid.) However, if you have Pitfall II I would trade for that. Oops! Boss is coming back around...gotta go. I'll post the pic later. Speedy -

Hi guys, I am not a troll, honestly. I'm a 30-year-old woman living in West Virginia and I have very recently bought an Atari 2600 to "buy back my childhood" and this is week No. 2 for me having the old stuff again. I never played Solaris when I was a kid so I didn't know what it was -- I was more into games such as Pitfall, Enduro, Donkey Kong -- basically non-space-tank-shoot'em ups, etc. Now I will be able to write my eBay seller again and let him know that I don't appreciate getting Solaris instead of Enduro. With French instructions, no less. Thanks!! Speedbump -
Hello, I bought a blue label Enduro cartridge w/instructions on eBay. The guy didn't tell me the instructions were in FRENCH, but hey that's a whole different problem. The label says Enduro, so I didn't suspect anything. I popped the cartridge in to play, and was confronted with a game I have never seen before. I've looked and looked through the games listed on atariage.com but I've given up. I have some screen captures attached. Can anyone help me identify this game? Thank you!!
